A quick bit on logistics:
- The forum 'resources' will be dedicated to one rally place per year.
- With the decrease in the past 2 years in vendor/corporate fiscal support due to the uncertainty of the F6B's production future, Rallies like the previous 2 where there is no "elegant catered meal" or "plaques for prizes" are becoming the norm, whereas the "Phantom Full Monty" from 2014 & 2013 is all but financially impossible.
- Y'all seemed to have a great time at both 2016 & 2017 rallies where we rode during the day, and had camaraderie time under the tent in the evening without any 'regimented structure.'
This group of people is fantastic & unassuming and I'm proud to support and provide for them.
Back to business:
From reviewing the bidding thus far, I can see some support for:
- xxxx, Kentucky
- Durango/Montrose, Colorado
Where else has the infrastructure to support our gathering?
Somethings to consider:
- not doing it during WingDing
- not in a tourist trap city
- in conjunction with a holiday weekend to provide people some time to recover (is this important to the group???)
- As Phantom so eloquently pointed out, many of us are not retired, however, I am, and I am willing to ride to wherever to check stuff out.
Please make any further thread responses a City, State or "seconding" someone's previous suggestion.
Thanks much!
Steve
